Installation
General Information
NOTE: Reference numbers and letters in parentheses
in the text refer to the callouts in the figures and the
parts drawing.
Prepare the Operator
All persons who operate the equipment must be
trained in the safe, efficient operation of all system
components as well as the proper handling of all fluids.
All operators must thoroughly read all instruction
manuals, tags, and labels before operating the equip-
ment.
Prepare the Site
Ensure that the wall is strong enough to support the
weight of the heater and accessories, fluid, hoses, and
stress caused during operation.
Keep the site clear of any obstacles or debris that
could interfere with the operator’s movement.
Installing the Heater Module
WARNING
FIRE, EXPLOSION, AND ELECTRIC
SHOCK HAZARD
The Viscon HP Heater must be installed
by a qualified electrician in compliance
with all state and local codes and regula-
tions, to reduce the risk of electric shock
or other serious injury during installation
or operation.
When installing in a flammable atmo-
sphere (hazardous location) refer to
Article 500 of the US National Electric Code or
other applicable agency standards to plan the
work.
Refer to the Technical Data and to the supplied
Viscon HP Heater manual for information on heater
power supply requirements.
Do not plug in or unplug a power cord in any area
containing flammable fluids or fumes, to avoid fire
or explosion resulting in serious injury.
Do not put all flammable materials and debris on
or near the heater. Keep the work area clean.
WARNING
COMPONENT RUPTURE HAZARD
Heat causes fluid to expand. If the
heated fluid is trapped with nowhere to
expand, it can cause component rupture.
Be sure to keep the heated fluid circulating (turn
the 3-way recirculation valve to the circulation
position). Do not install a fluid shutoff device
between the heater and the gun.
To convert a pump module to a heated package, install
the heater module as follows.
NOTE: Refer to Fig. 1, and to the Mounting Hole
Layout on page 11.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury whenever you
are instructed to relieve pressure, always follow the
Pressure Relief Procedure on page 7.
1. Relieve the pressure.
2. Unscrew the swivel (A) from the nipple (B). Re-
move the fluid filter (C) and connected parts.
Remove the nipple (B) and ball valve (F) from the
filter and discard them. See the Disassembly
Detail in Fig. 1.
3. Position the heater bracket (5) to the right of the
pump bracket (D), at the same height. The two
slots must face up. The center of the two outer left
holes must be no more than 9 in. (228 mm) from
the right edge of the pump bracket. See page 11.
4. Check that the heater bracket (5) is level. Using
the bracket as a template, mark the four outer
holes on the wall. Refer to the Mounting Hole
Layout on page 11. The four outer holes are used
to mount the bracket to the wall, and the two inner
slots and two inner holes are to mount the heater
(1) to the bracket.
5. Drill four holes in the wall.
6. Bolt the bracket (5) to the wall with 1/2 in. bolts
and washers. Use bolts that are long enough to
keep the bracket from vibrating during operation.
7. Install two screws (E, included with the heater) into
the top two heater mounting posts until they are
about 1/8 in. (3 mm) from fully installed.
